 GIMI uses the iRODS data grid for archiving and further processing. The rest of this page describes how to get an iRODS account and then use it to archive experiment results gathered on a WiMAX testbed to iRODS.
+
+== Archiving an Experiment to iRODS ==
+=== Get an iRODS account (one time only) ===
+Use of iRODS is on an opt-in basis. To get an iRODS account, contact the designated administrator for your WiMAX testbed:
+
+||Site||Contact||
+||WINLAB||witestlab@poly.edu||
+||NYU-Poly||witestlab@poly.edu||
+
+=== Initialize your iRODS account  (one time only) ===
+
+The first time you use this account, you must initialize it using {{{iinit}}} and the values provided by your site administrator. For example:
+{{{
+$ iinit
+One or more fields in your iRODS environment file (.irodsEnv) are
+missing; please enter them.
+Enter the host name (DNS) of the server to connect to:emmy9.casa.umass.edu
+Enter the port number:1247
+Enter your irods user name:ffund
+Enter your irods zone:geniRenci
+Those values will be added to your environment file (for use by
+other i-commands) if the login succeeds.
+
+
+Enter your current iRODS password:
+}}}
+
+Then add a line to your {{{~/.irods/.irodsEnv}}} file indicating your default resource on the iRODS server. For example:
+{{{
+echo "irodsDefResource=iRODSUmass2" >> ~/.irods/.irodsEnv
+}}}
+
+Finally, use {{{ipasswd}}} to change your password from the default password given to you by the iRODS site adminstrator.
